INTRODUCTION.
The Register of Apprentices for the City of Edinburgh, from
29th May 1583 to 30th May 1666, was edited by Francis J.
Grant, W.S., now Lyon King of Arms, and was issued in 1906.
The present volume carries on the work to the end of the year
1700, and owes much to its predecessor.
There are no separate registers of apprentices ; the entries
occur along with those of Burgesses and Guild-brethren in the
scroll registers of the Dean of Guild Court, from which the
Burgesses and Guild-brethren were carefully and legibly
entered in their own register volumes, some of which still exist.
Whether the entries of apprentices were so transferred I cannot
say; if so the volumes have disappeared.
The writing of those scrolls is execrable, utterly hasty and
often almost illegible. The regular form of the entry can, of
course, always be followed, and as a rule the christian and sur-
names can be deciphered without much risk of error, but the
local names are so badly written, and often so evidently a wild
attempt at phonetic spelling, that even the experts, whose help
I most gratefully acknowledge, have in some cases been forced
to rest content with little more than conjecture.
In many — perhaps most — cases the local names refer to
lands quite beyond reach of identification.
Some notes and a glossary will be found at the end of the
book when completed.
